Oh, well. It’s not the end of the world, is it?

The BBC is factual: Apec leaders drop climate target. Snippet: "World leaders meeting in Singapore have said it will not be possible to reach a climate change deal ahead of next month's UN conference in Denmark."

While the New York Times adopts a sober tone: World Leaders Agree to Delay a Deal on Climate Change. Snippet: "SINGAPORE — President Obama and other world leaders have decided to put off the difficult task of reaching a climate change agreement at a global climate conference scheduled for next month, agreeing instead to make it the mission of the Copenhagen conference to reach a less specific 'politically binding' agreement that would punt the most difficult issues into the future."
